Safety

Safety and health require individual responsibility on the part of every College employee. The College expects all employees to contribute positively to health and safety at the College and to report to the Human Resources Office or Campus Safety Office any action or condition which is or might be unsafe or detrimental to the health of anyone on campus. A safety committee, chaired by the Campus Safety Director, serves to identify and help to resolve issues related to campus safety.

Work related injuries

The Workers Compensation law of Michigan protects each employee. If an employee is involved in an accident or suffers personal injury arising out of and in the course of College business, it should be reported as soon as possible to the employee’s supervisor and to the Human Resources Office. The Bronson ProHealth with Bronson Hospital is the College’s healthcare provider for work related injuries. Human resources staff will arrange an appointment. In the event of serious injury requiring emergency treatment, Bronson Hospital’s emergency room is preferred, but treatment may be obtained at the nearest emergency room where appropriate. Worker’s Compensation Insurance, paid by the College, provides coverage for all employees in the event of lost work time or medical expenses incurred as the direct result of a work related injury.
